I registered for the "Check In" webinar and was never sent any email with information about the webinar on February 6th. I tried to register again today, since I hadn't received the email, and still have nothing. Guess I'll have to miss out on this one. What a shame.

They sent out an email with the links for both the slides alone & the slides & audio to those that we able to login and be there, so they probably still have it handy to email out to those who couldn't attend.

by Kip Odell As we near the end of Teen Tech Week, librarians will begin to evaluate their programs. Experiencing and learning about library programs in action during this week is always a great reminder about how important technological literacy is for teens and how beneficial hands-on experiences can be for them. This year three [...]Passive Programming for Teen Tech Week
